I'll start off by saying that I have been extremely impressed by the versatility of these shoes! I live in Colorado and having a shoe that offers stability, traction, breathability, lightweight construction, and protection for all aspects of trail activity is really important to me. To say that this is just a trail running shoe would not be doing it justice.

Since purchasing these shoes I have used them for trail runs, day hikes, overnight backpack trips, and for casual around-town use. The Michelin soles and well executed cushioning has earned these shoes the title of my 'daily driver'. Luckily when you do get them dirty they are really easy to clean and dry quickly.

Fit comment: I wouldn't necessarily recommend these shoes for someone with a very wide foot, but if you are average or even on the narrower side, the mesh hugs your forefoot just right. I hope this helps the next person looking and if you didn't gather already, I'd definitely recommend getting a pair!
